Youth grades 9th-12th - Confirmation

Confirmation preparation and celebration should reside within a comprehensive youth ministry process (should not take the place of a youth ministry process and should not stand alone - completely separate from a youth ministry process).

THE CANDIDATE

5. Are willing to commit to active involvement in the parish Confirmation preparation process.

6. Are willing to continue to grow in faith following Confirmation and throughout their lifetime.
   
   For more details call parish office.

Confirmation with Baptism and Eucharist is a sacrament of initiation.  Confirmation is a deepening of baptismal gifts.  Confirmation roots us more deeply in our identity as God's children, unites us more firmly with Christ, increases in us the gifts of the Holy Spirit, binds us more closely to the Church and gives us special strength to bear witness to our faith.  

Sessions are offered on Thursday's from 7:00 p.m. -9:00 p.m. in the parish Hall.
